A new piece of equipment used to enhance the central Oregon fly fishing experience.

Bend, OR (PRWEB)August 1, 2007

Fly and Field Outfitters has added an important piece of safety equipment, a satellite phone, to give fly fishermen the safest multi-day fly fishing trips in the Lower Deschutes Canyon.

"Since we travel at the foot of 2500 ft. tall canyon walls, traditional cellular service providers can not deliver service to us. Now we provide our guests with the convenience and safety of a Globalstar handset while they fish and enjoy them selves in the remote areas of Oregon's Deschutes River," said Damien Nurre, head fly fishing guide at Fly and Field outfitters. "The phone will primarily be used only in the event of an emergency, but guests who need to use the phone will be able to do so. We are devoted to providing the most fun, professional, and safe, fly fishing experience in Central Oregon. All of our guides are trained in white water safety, first aid, and CPR so the addition of emergency communications was the natural next step. We hope to never have to use the phone for reasons other than giving fish reports to our friends stuck behind desks, but now we at least have the option if we need it."

Fly and Field Outfitters offer guided fly fishing trips on a wide variety of water in the Central Oregon area including Fly Fishing Trips in Bend Oregon. For more information on the hunting and fly fishing guide service or equipment available visit http://www.flyandfield.com or call 541-318-1616.
